The murder of Co Armagh trucker Paul Quinn will be debated in the Dáil next week, it emerged today.
Government and Opposition TDs will read statements into the parliamentary record on last October's killing in a remote shed in Co Monaghan.
Mr Quinn (21), was beaten to death by a gang of about a dozen men. Gardai and the PSNI have mounted an intensive cross-Border investigation but no arrests have been made.
"There will be statements on the killing of Paul Quinn on February 7th and Minister for Justice Brian Lenihan will contribute," said an Oireachtas spokesperson.
Mr Quinn's parents have blamed the IRA for the death of their son, whom they claimed had defied orders to leave the country by the terrorist group.
However Sinn Féin denied any republican link and said the death was sparked by a feud between rival criminal gangs involved in fuel smuggling.
Parents Stephen and Briege Quinn have mounted a high-profile campaign to bring those responsible to justice and have met many politicians including Taoiseach Bertie Ahern and Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny.
Gardaí said last seek that they are pursuing 1,200 lines of inquiry into the murder and had taken more than 400 statements.
Investigating officer Supt Karl Heller also urged family and friends of those involved in the murder to examine their consciences and come forward.
